Good work chaps. I've been exceptionally tardy of late, need to get back out there before the half stone I've put back on over the last year gets any bigger. I have finally managed to invest in some winter gear though, which will help. |

There were views? To be honest with the rain and wind a lot of it was just head down and get on with it. There were some very pretty sections though. |

It is so stunning up there. |
This is disgusting: http://www.bikeradar.com/road/news/article/new-forest-sportive-hit-by-saboteurs-for-second-time-38616/Direction signs were pulled down and mud sprayed on roads by saboteurs targeting a popular New Forest sportive over the weekend. |
I would love to come across someone doing that. Utter cunts. |
New Forest Nimbys are some of the worst, this kind of nonsense makes me want to enter just to annoy them. |
Actually puts me off signing up to the fallen leaves thing, though I'd hope that they'd not go after a clearly casual event. |
Reading the article I really don't understand the motives behind it. Surely more cyclists is good for the park? More people get to see it with far less noise / pollution than cars. I used to love cycling around it, its just a bit far for me to go these days. |
In the article they point mainly to "equine groups", but don't underestimate how much ramblers hate cyclists. It's not something roadies generally see a lot of, but I've had plenty of abuse thrown in my direction for daring to cycle on "their" bridleways. God help me if I accidentally found myself on a footpath instead, there would probably be blood. Haven't generally had any problems with the equine types, but given I really, really don't want to scare horses I generally tend to give them as wide a berth as possible on the trails. |
I suppose there are plenty of cyclists who give no consideration to walkers / horses. But to actively sabotage an organised event... |
Megapocalypse wrote:There's a small hardcore of New Forest groups like the Commoners� Defence Association who are pretty strongly against cycling events. They don't seem to give a stuff about the cars that cause most of the livestock & pony deaths, but since when does being rational having anything to do with objecting to things? There is a bit of an issue with riding discipline, IMO. There's been such an explosion in road riding that people aren't really picking up good habits, but then some clubs seem reluctant to assist or have the time to do so. That means that cyclists on these events can get themselves into conflict, no doubt almost always unintentionally. To be honest, Sportive organisers could do a lot more here. They are always keen to point out "It's not a race," basically to cover their arses from an insurance perspective, but then they also provide race timing systems. It's pretty inconsistent.

As of Friday, December 2, 2011

Albany Herald
AMERICUS -- Kelly Britsky glances at the Top 25 national poll every now and then.
The Georgia Southwestern women's basketball coach doesn't put too much stock in the USA Today/ESPN Division II Coaches poll, but she does notice that her team isn't getting any love.
There's not a single vote for the 7-1 Lady Hurricanes, who are in the midst of their best season in program history since moving to NCAA Division II in 2006.
But that doesn't bother Britsky or her players, who are preparing for their two most important games so far this season -- the Peach Belt Conference opener Saturday at Montevallo and a Dec. 14 matchup against defending national champion Clayton State, which is currently ranked No. 6 in the nation.
The Lady Hurricanes are enjoying this start -- after all, they finished a dismal 12-14 last season, and were a combined 37-96 in the five years previous to this season, including 17-73 in PBC play -- but Britsky said the only thing they are thinking about right now is their PBC schedule.
"I love it. It makes it great to come into work," Britsky said about her team's early season success. "But I think we are just focused on what's coming up in the Peach Belt. If we can be successful there, we know we are really getting it done."
The Lady Hurricanes breezed through their non-conference schedule, winning by an average margin of nearly 20 points per game. Their only blemish was a Nov. 27 loss to Fort Valley State in a game GSW led by nine points at halftime before getting outscored, 39-25, in the second half.
Britsky said the GSW coaches and players were all upset with themselves after losing to a Fort Valley team they believed they should have easily taken care of.
"We were extremely angry," Britsky said. "We felt like it was a game that we should have really controlled and not been in that situation. We shouldn't have been there. It was really frustrating."
So how did the Lady Hurricanes respond after their six-game winning streak was snapped?
Simply by blowing out Truett-McConnell by 54 points Wednesday in their second-to-last non-conference game of the year. It improved GSW's record to 3-0 in the Storm Dome, where they have outscored opponents by an average of 44 points per game.
The Lady Hurricanes have been led by five players who are all averaging more than 10 points per game -- senior Terra Branch (14.2 ppg), senior Tania Walters (12.8 ppg), senior Jessica Bivins (11.4 ppg), senior Jessica Jones (11.2 ppg) and junior Adrian Randall (11.1 ppg, 12.1 rpg).
"That's probably our strength," Britsky said. "On any given day we don't have a clue who will step up and be the leading scorer."
Branch, Walters and Bivins are guards returning from last year's team, while Jones (a transfer from Mars Hill, N.C., College) and Randall (a transfer from Marshall University) have manned the post. GSW is a guard-heavy team, balanced out by 6-foot-2 Randall, who grew up in Brooklyn, N.Y.
"She has really owned the boards," Britsky said of her center. "She has stepped up and figured out the true talent she has. And I don't think she has come close to realizing how good she can be."
It hasn't taken long for the Lady Hurricanes to realize just how good of a team they can be this year. Britsky admitted her girls still have a little bit of growing to do and the depth on the bench doesn't stretch very far, but those five starters who each average more than 30 minutes per game are starting to open some eyes around Southwest Georgia.
"They are focused, which is something I have noticed," Britsky said. "They have kind of policed themselves as far as staying on track and doing some good things. It's nice for a coach to be able to sit back and watch a team that plays like this."
LADY TITANS STAY UNBEATEN: Youth and inexperience haven't seemed to bother the Albany Tech women's basketball team this season, which is off to its best start in the three-year history of the program.
The Lady Titans improved to 5-0 on Wednesday with a 72-59 victory against Atlanta Metro in the Region XVII opener for both teams.
"We are starting to put things together," ATC coach Kenneth Williams said. "We wanted to get started in the conference on a good note. This was actually our first time winning at Atlanta Metro. We have never played well up there. It was good to get that monkey off our back."
The Lady Titans' only returning starter, Bianca Fennessee, is a big reason why they have gotten off to such a fast start and why they knocked off Atlanta Metro on Wednesday. The 6-foot-2 sophomore from Chicago had 21 points and 26 rebounds against Atlanta Metro and is leading the conference with 13.5 rebounds per game.
"She has really been coming on lately," Williams said of his star forward. "If we can, we want her to have her touch the ball every time we come down the court."
Sophomore Shakima Wiggins, a transfer from Georgia Perimeter, also scored 25 points against Atlanta Metro, and the Lady Titans will need both of their stars to continue to put up scorching numbers like that when they host three games in a four-day span next week. They will play region foes Central Georgia Tech and Chattahoochee Tech on Wednesday and Friday, respectively, then Gordon College on Saturday.
CONTROVERSIAL ENDING FOR TITANS: The Albany Tech men's basketball team fell to 3-5 this season after a 55-53 loss to Atlanta Metro on Wednesday night, but ATC coach Sylvester Patterson said it was a defeat that never should have happened.
The coach said a series of bad officiating calls at the end of the game, mixed in with some unfortunate ATC errors, gave Atlanta Metro the come-from-behind victory on its home court.
"We were more angry than anything," Patterson said about how his team was feeling on its three-hour bus ride back to Albany. "The kids were angry. They felt like the game was taken away from them."
With 30 seconds left in the game, ATC was leading, 52-49, and had the ball. However, a Titan turnover gave the ball to Atlanta Metro, which then went to the free throw line for a 1-and-1. The front end of the 1-and-1 rimmed out, but a pair of ATC players went up for the rebound and tipped it straight to Atlanta Metro's sharp shooter, who nailed a game-tying 3-pointer.
What happened next was what Patterson was still frustrated about Thursday evening. ATC freshman Anthony Mackey was fouled and put on the line for two free throws, but after he missed the first free throw, Atlanta Metro grabbed the rebound and took it down the court for a bucket.
"I ran on the court to get them to stop the play," Patterson said. "Then they decided it should have been a double bonus, so they gave (Mackey) his second free throw. But they still counted (Atlanta Metro's field goal that put the Titans down by two)."
That controversial bucket ended up being the deciding factor in the Titans' Region XVII opener. Former Worth County star Jamorris Gaines led ATC on Wednesday with 22 points and seven rebounds, while Mackey, a former Monroe star, had nine points and six rebounds.

What would old luggage have to do with population growth?
Moving into an area, or immigration, is a key factor in the growth of populations. Shown above is actual vintage luggage left by some of the millions of immigrants who came through Ellis Island and into the United States.
Population Growth
Populations gain individuals through births and immigration. They lose individuals through deaths and emigration. These factors together determine how fast a population grows.
Population Growth Rate
Population growth rate ( r ) is how fast a population changes in size over time. A positive growth rate means a population is increasing. A negative growth rate means it is decreasing. The two main factors affecting population growth are the birth rate ( b ) and death rate ( d ). Population growth may also be affected by people coming into the population from somewhere else ( immigration , i ) or leaving the population for another area ( emigration , e ). The formula for population growth takes all these factors into account.
r = ( b + i ) - ( d + e )
- r = population growth rate
- b = birth rate
- i = immigration rate
- d = death rate
- e = emigration rate
Two lectures on demography are available at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3diw1Hu3auk (50:36) and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wg3ESbyKbic (49:38).
Other types of movements may also affect population size and growth. For example, many species have some means of dispersal . This refers to offspring moving away from their parents. This prevents the offspring from competing with the parents for resources such as light or water. For example, dandelion seeds have "parachutes." They allow the wind to carry the seeds far from the parents (see Figure below ).
Dandelion Seeds. These dandelion seeds may disperse far from the parent plant. Why might this be beneficial to both parents and offspring?
Migration is another type of movement that changes population size. Migration is the regular movement of individuals or populations each year during certain seasons. The purpose of migration usually is to find food, mates, or other resources. For example, many Northern Hemisphere birds migrate thousands of miles south each fall. They go to areas where the weather is warmer and more resources are available (see Figure below ). Then they return north in the spring to nest. Some animals, such as elk, migrate vertically. They go up the sides of mountains in spring as snow melts. They go back down the mountain sides in fall as snow returns.
Swainson's hawks migrate from North to South America and back again each year. This map shows where individual hawks have been identified during their migration.

Mar 9th, 2013I had an interest a long time ago in working with photography, but I was never able to get a camera to snap any photos, other than disposables that I never got developed. Now that technology is a bit better digital is everywhere making it a little easier. I have a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H200 as a little starter camera, and I also have an nice app on my Windows Phone 8 that allows me to take decent pictures as well as multi-capture (up to 15 processing which isn't bad), but it's still pretty good and I use both of them for different things. I hope to learn a lot from you guys here at Shadowness. I am a full time IT help desk User Security Administrator for the Fresenius company, and I put in a lot of over time so I do what I can outside of that schedule to capture what I love.

Here are some details about my project: | |
Category | Knitting |
Type | Home Decor |
Yarn Weight | Other |
Sizing | Other |
Style | Geeky |
What materials did you use? Can your personal knitting set-up be home decor? I argue yes! From the precious bookshelf space you rearrange to hold your growing, colourful, multi-textured stash, to the yarn bowl made from tupperware and a stationery clip that sits camouflaged on the kitchen table. I favour "picking" and yes, I knit in bed. I'm a left-side gal. You see the problem here... This way, I can maintain tension and control feed from the nightstand to my left with items I had at home anyway! As I want to add other methods and styles to my bag of tricks, the clip can/will be repurposed for Portuguese.
What are you most proud of? Knitting hit me like a bolt of lightning in late February 2014. This is what happens when adjustments are made on the fly for cheap to accommodate an apartment-living zealous convert (I'll be adding photos to this "project" as more mods are made)
What advice would you give someone starting this project? Don't get derailed thinking you need a hand-made ceramic yarn bowl for ?30 or a crafting room/table. Or addi turbos. These are all perfectly nice things and understandable aims, but I think of knitting and the joy it brings as an equaliser. I try to think of ways I can do more, not reasons why I have to wait to get around to it/afford it. The finer things will come, but for now my acrylics, polyesters, bamboo, and tupperware are having a whale of a time! (and I'm prioritising new Craftsy courses and skill-building!)
I've added tiny bits of electrical tape to my DPNs. When you're dealing with tricky first rounds (especially with a cast-on in the single digits), this can help keep your head straight. Next time, I'll tape toward the end of the needles so they help with orientation too. But this method helped me crack one *very* frustrating decorative flower!
So LOVE your Mcguyver yarn bowl!! I'm normally the queen of repurposing things in my neck of the woods so this just tickled my frugal heart! :-)
Thank you so much! Knitting's not the cheapest hobby in the world, so I definitely like to save my pennies for for the essentials like good yarns. Anything else? The name of the game is "get creative". Thinking "What would MacGyver do?" is pretty much a great way to think about everything in life!
What a clever idea, I am going to try it...thanks so much for sharing! :D
Thanks! Several months on, and I'm still using this set up. So many ceramic yarn bowls are beautiful but I just know I'd break them! The plastic bowl bonus is that if the project is small enough, I can stuff it and the needles into it, slap on the lid, and be ready to travel without harming the yarn/losing the stitch markers, etc. I just got back from holiday in Spain and it worked perfectly!
That is a fantastic idea! Julie T., Massachusetts
D'oh! Accidentally responded to you initially without hitting "reply". I'll just copy/paste that here. Thanks so much! I've been happily using this set up for about a year now. It doesn't seem to stress or felt the yarn at all, and I've used some pretty delicate lace-weights at this point!

The Syrian Electronic Army hacked CNN's Twitter account Thursday evening and declared all news to be fake. Oh well, time to go home everyone. The SEA has spoken.
A series of tweets appeared on CNN's account late Thursday evening that appear to be authored by the same Syrian hackers who have taken down The New York Times, the Financial Times and the Washington Post.
Here are those tweets:
So all news is fake and the hackers will be back. Like the Terminator, but on Twitter so way less threatening. Oh, and a bunch of stuff about Obama Bin Laden, lord of Terror. (Somewhere, a conservative think tank is kicking itself for coming up with that first.)
The news network isn't exactly having the best day on Twitter. Earlier Thursday, CNN faced scrutiny for using the Upworthy style-guide on a headline about a girl stabbing her sister multiple times. CNN also went overboard on Bieber coverage, and this is coming from someone who wrote about Bieber's zit. Maybe this Wednesday is actually a Monday at CNN. Yes, that must be it.

Featured review from Shawn McDaniel
Red Velvetview more less of this reviewExploring the supposedly haunted vaults, elevators, and crypts of the Fox theater only by the light of a lantern is scary indeed. It gets a bit more frightening when paired with ghost stories, costumed spirits and a psychic! The nicest part about this experience was that the tours were timed so that there were only about 15 people in each group.

More frightening than those bruises, broken bones, or arthritis, your old skateboards have come back to haunt you. Carved from the remnants of shattered boards by designer Beto Janz, these creepy heads mysteriously started to appear around the town of Curitiba in Brazil—no doubt hunting down the jumps and flips that killed them. Read on for the story behind these spooky designs, if you dare…
The busted corners and feathered wood of each destroyed skate deck lend themselves incredibly well to the dead-face look expressed by each piece. Eerily antagonistic, the eyes appear to almost condemn onlookers for failing to hop that one railing, or, for some, not ever having skateboarded at all.
Each of Janz's skulls have been marked with a sticker, leading whomever may have discovered the unlikely icon to the Ultra Skate Store; a shop, as it turns out, that Janz was promoting. Maybe the truly scary thing is how ubiquitous modern advertising has become.
